Sure, it just will not be set up out of the box.

But as is mentioned briefly in
<URL: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Lenny/HowTo/NetworkClients#IntroductiontoThinclientsandDisklessworkstations >,
to do that you need to add '3' as a kernel argument in
/var/lib/tftpboot/ltsp/i386/pxelinux.cfg/default to change the
defaults for clients on the thin client network.  Please update the
documentation to make it clearer when you have tested this.

If you want to boot diskless workstations on the main network
(10.0.2.0/23) for a separate thin client server, you need to change
the files in /var/lib/tftpboot/debian-edu/ to refer to the separate
thin client server.

Happy hacking,
